My Current MAC Collection & Reviews

Wednesday, 13 November 2013

Hey guys!

So I have started to gain a little collection of products from the brand MAC. I wouldn't say I have a lot, only a couple of bits, but I love them all!

The "powdery" type products :
1. Mineralized Skin Finish in "soft and gentle"
This highlighter has been raved about on so many blogs, but amazingly I had this picked out for my by the sales assistant before I had heard about it!
The colour is great for so many skin tones, and I find this an easy every day highlighter. This will last for ages before it hits pan!

2. Pro Longwear Blush in " stay pretty"
I wanted an everyday pink blush that would suit my skin tone, and I defo think this suits the brief! It looks quite bright before applying (like many pink blushes) but you can add this bit by bit.

3&4. Mineralized skin finish natural "medium plus" & "medium"
These are my go to powders! For ages I searched for a powder that I could wear over my foundation without making it look cakey! As you can see I've hit pan on one them, which is the medium plus shade, i'm quite surprised I prefer that one because I'm actually quite pale, but the colour seems to just work over my foundation.

5. Bronzer in "golden"
I was randomly looking for a bronzer and bought this on a whim. I think this defo warms up my skin tone, but to be honest it's hard to notice I'm wearing this unless I layer it up.

The foundations:

1. Studio Sculpt foundation

I bought this because it was advertised as good for dry skin and that's my skin type! I hated this foundation on the first few tries, but now I LOVE it. The coverage is full. The only negative is that I have to wear a powder over it to contract the yellowness of the foundation. My shade is NW20

2. Face and body foundation

I bought this when I was in a phase of the "I'm not wearing any makeup" look. The coverage is very light, I would say this is amazing for dry skin. The negative is that it seems to be the only foundation out there that actually gives me spots and my skin is usually pretty good.

The eyeshadows:
I bought Amber Lights because I wanted a colour to make my bluey/green eyes stand out, and so the sales assistant recommended me this. To be honest I hardly wear this because I don't quite know how to use the colour and prefer to go for a more brown shade if I wear eyeshadow.
The Carbon eyeshadow was initially bought to use as a eyeshadow/eyeliner combo! But to be honest is defo isn't pigmented enough to wear that way. Again I am finding this difficult to wear at the moment unless I use it to shade over an eyeliner.

I also own a lipstick called "Snob" but couldn't find it at the time of photographing for this post.
What is your favourite MAC product?

Ah you have a fab collection of MAC products! I have quite a lot of their shadows, and they're all so gorgeous aren't they? I reallllly love Amber Lights! I bet it looks stunning when used with Carbon xx

thanks for your lovely comment! I replied to that part on my blog but wanted to check out your link you left me :)I am the same with Face&Body!! it must be an odd formula or something... mine split too into the pigmented bit and.. water not too long after I bought it, so annoying :( MAC is still such a staple though, I won't be without my Omega :) haha xx
